I just wanted to let everyone know that I have experienced the difference between brushing wet hair and combing it. I used to use this cheap plastic vent brush on my wet hair, and it always snapped my hair off. My hair is very thick, so I didn't think I could use a comb, and I wasn't sure I believed a comb would work any better. Recently, I bought a wide-tooth, tortise-shell comb and the results were wonderful! My hair detangles so much more easily, and hardly ever snaps or breaks off. So, for anyone who is sceptical, combing wet hair is definitely the way to go, in my opinion.

Kate,Yes...combing is definitely the way to go and brushing wet hair can really damage it. I used to think that brushing was easier and then Jim Butchee gave me a demonstration on how wet hair is so much more fragile and will snap off very easily.That taught me a lesson. Sometimes I switch between the Battalia wide tooth comb and the Eflock pic and the results are just great.Thanks for the info.Regards,Karen

I have been using a brush on my hair for 9 years with little or no damage. The name of the brush is SPLENDOR. I bought it at a rummage sale and would like to find a source to buy a new one.Thank You, Pamela
